Online Dating FAQ - Online Dating

Why use Singles.com?

With the vast number of dating sites out there and more popping up every day, finding the right one for you is a daunting task. Singles.com offers the most respected OBJECTIVE dating site reviews, covering everything from generic, all inclusive sites to the most obscure niche sites. Establishing trust with our users is our #1 goal, so our team of site reviewers each do an independent study of a site and eventually come to a consensus.

What makes Singles.com qualified to review dating sites?

We have an internal team of experienced inhouse dating site reviewers with over 25 years of combined online dating experience. Each one of those team members does an independent review of the site in question. Once completed, the team sits down and comes up with a consensus review. In most cases, they tend to come up with the same basic review. Because each person has their own likes and dislikes, our reviewers are told to ignore the content of the site and simply look at the facts: number of members, quality of profiles, value for money, customer service quality, and an overall review of the site.

What does Singles.com offer?

In addition to our unbiased reviews, we are also able to get you the lowest possible price on the dating site of your choice. Because we have established relationships with many our partner sites, we are able to pass the savings on to our surfers. Many, if not all, dating sites offer something for free. Typically they'll allow you to create a profile and browse through their database of profiles free of charge. However, once you decide to contact a member or take advantage of their more advanced features, you'll have to pay. This is where we are able to pass the savings on to you.

How much does Singles.com cost?

Nothing. Singles.com is an absolutely free service intended to simply guide potential online dating customers to the best suited site for their needs. There are no hidden fees and we will never ask you for personal information at all.

How does a site get listed on Singles.com?

If you are a dating site owner and would like to be listed on Singles.com, please fill out our form by clicking over to the Submit A Site page. We will examine your site within 72 hours and notify you once it's up on Singles.com.

Do you list every site that you are asked to?

No. There are times when a dating site is simply not ready to be on Singles.com. We want only the best of the best, whether that be a niche specific site like Gothic Match or a mega dating site like Match.com. If a site owner has broken links, questionable content, or underage content, we will not list the site on Singles.com.

What happens if I join a site that you recommend but it turns out that I don't like it?

Unfortunately, Singles.com is simply a guide. We cannot guarantee that everyone will love the site that we recommend. If you join a site and end up hating it, you'll have to contact that site owner directly in order to resolve the issue.

What do you think of social networking sites like MySpace.com as an online dating tool?

Obviously sites like MySpace are as popular as there are for a reason. They have tons of things to do and people to meet. However, we would not recommend it as a dating site. Typically, any membership site that is completely free will have some bad seeds. In this case, you will come across a ton of underage people pretending to be adults, men pretending to be women, etc. Real online dating sites, while they cost money, will be able to better screen against such fraudulent activity.
